headline I'm Gavin Hoey and watching
Adorama TV brought to you by Adorama the camera still has everything
us the top offense and today I'm gonna be another 15 minute
Photo Challenge do
now I come to Ryan gave port which sounds really good except
it actually buried below the ground so is not much to pay to graft above the
ground but we're gonna find some good shots
15 minutes isn't long and we should find some great pictures
number to start here because it's beautiful I N work
that so-called by the and looking a little bit old just my sorta thing
now is really quite dark and gloomy down here so let's see what we get for
shutter speed
my coming to take my shot yeah okay I'm getting a
a thirtieth a second and that's that's not a good when I'm really using data
meeting Mike
24-105 lens and I want ISO 800
and that's quite high but is the 5d mark two
full frame camera and he gonna shoot in low lighting high ISO
it's a good tool for the job now I can just slightly under expose my image
because I'm shooting in RAW ok I know I can pull it back
and I'm to expel you think it helped the bump up the shutter speed finder exposed
by
stop that double with my shutter speed and it looks pretty good
so I got this idea in my head if I grab at me
it's sad now randomly for anyone will do
I'm going to dress it up against the metal but here and just gonna little
shallow depth of field shot
will pop out there amo
open up the aperture breezy today this could take a while
and put that there when I open up the aperture I'm still on ISO
800 in the background to my shot there's a white
have to admit a white wall and that's really distracting you gonna watch out
for highlights like that site I'm gonna make you my lady
mining immediate one bar along I'm gonna take the same shot
but this time I'm gonna try and make sure I avoid getting that white
background
in the same up
okay so am what asking the fate of
plenty of things to shape but you know what to sing the the state is here
and they're sorta facing towards the light now know me as photographers
we say never shoot into the light actually some the best pictures I've ever
taken are done
with exactly that in mind shooting straight into the light so
I'm gonna try and get a picture all the steps I'm gonna get right down lie
because I want to get a health
wrong a shape up the steps and
with a symmetrical shape as well site let's have a shot
he amp
but the sky is looking a little bit wishy washy is not really too much
detail in the sky side I'm gonna drop my exposure compensation down a couple of
stops
to try and get some detail in the sky which I can do better as soon as I do
that what happens is I
lose all the detail in the four grams I need detail in the sky indeed how in the
the shadows
how do you do that well HDR high dynamic range
exposure blending call it whatever you like I'm have to take a couple other
exposures
so I'm gonna jump into my camera menu I'm gonna find the
HEB exposure bracketing and will dial it in so I take three pitches
to stop the part hearing aid
up and a quick review on the back to camera yeah I can say I've got a picture
with the 10 in the sky
but a picture with detail in the steps in the grass
all I need to do is bringing together in Photoshop and a
we've we're good to go don't forget to check out around his latest contest
and your chance to win amazing prizes okays not really
old in fact is probably the most modern thing here on this location
I just love the collar and let's get a picture that as well why not
up
say we got the gates to the fore and these are
party the best but I think maybe they've got the text you're an interest in
in Iraq thing on there so that all looks good let's get a pitcher these now
whenever I come up something interesting I'm not quite sure what I'm gonna do my
first thing you think about the wide shot
and then get much wider than a panorama now on a 15 minute photo challenge I
allow myself to use one lens the 24-105
but I could take a really wide shot by overlapping pictures to make a
multimedia panorama
so many to do it but my camera in After tea party night
choose my aperture f8 and take a meter reading and my camera telling me a
shutter speed
all 402 the second say
let's get a manual died in four hundred the second
f8 ISO 400 and we'll take a series I
overlapping shots and the only be taken up right portrait format that's really
important
okay yeah me guys that will start here and all I'm doing is i'm looking at the
left side of my viewfinder
and whatever appears in the left side and I V find a on one shot
repair on the right hand side in my view binder on the neck shop
okay another idea for a wide shot as well so I switch back to
aperture-priority made
and we'll just come down he cut when I get the sweep in
now again I need to get a nice loading viewpoint I think for this
the rap for and interest in my scene money to stop my aperture damn so I got
a big about the field
remember the the bigger the average a number you dial in the the bigger than
at the theater f11 F-sixteen
should give me a nice big get the field the downside
if the shutter speed was not to drop off really quickly so you may have to bump
up your I say to compensate
going a bit breathe a sigh I think got time for one more shot
and I was gonna do some that close-up detail the door
Senate coming really close and doesn't beautiful texter in he s a
and grab some text too short I open the app drop
very shallow depth-of-field up
and take a couple shots like backs looks really good
and i think is fair a record shop I'm just gonna take the back at the door
with the writing on as well so let's do that
up
that they go fifty-minute comes and goes really really quickly
now if you need some inspiration on how to get more adding of photography
that get the check out the Adorama Learning Center wake up when it loads a
great hints and tips
and what if I networking to my pitches I'm gonna put the fee for to shop
right now wound
right there really isn't anything like a nice one cup a tea it was freezing cold
and blowing a guy or filming that but I got some great pictures
I'm gonna read it the HDR all the exposure blended image
I'm gonna do that right now in Photoshop CC so
I got the three matches sorted out that I shot these are my three sim with
Chinese images
two stops apart got the first one highlighted
when hold the shift key click on the last one I'm using many bridge here
which means what I need to do this right-click to use Photoshop
and then merged HDR Pro now could you could use the File
automate merge to HDR Pro go in that way if you prefer
doesn't really matter what we're trying to do is create something called a
32-bit image
and merge trace Dr pro is brilliant doing just that we need to set a couple
things up here so
festival I'm gonna turn on remove ghosts because they is moving clouds and that
can cause problems
and then I may change the mode from 16-bit
to 32-bit now I know the the picture looks worse as a result but stick with
me it'll get better
now the reason I'm using Photoshop CC is because it has is bringing that a button
at the bottom that says complete toning in a day be camera roll
if I just moved down a little bit is it too big to fit on the
the video as a button at the bottom that says 10 ACR
which I'm gonna click and what that will do is it'll take my 32-bit
HDR image and put its straight
into Adobe Camera Raw or so way before in Photoshop cs6 he would need to save
it as a 32-bit tape and bring it in
now it automatically comes in as a 32-bit
straight into role no more work to be done ap
don't want to have to do this in cs6 go back and watch
episode 115 by shooting HDR image
and process it in cs6 okay so
n roll I got everything here and this is a huge amount of data to play with
so I can get highlights and really come down low to recover that highlight
detail
I can open up the shadows I can bring some clarity of course
I can warm up the temperature so it would have to really good like that I'm
very pleased with that
but a few things we need to do to help keeping really I'm gonna go to the
detail tab
and I'll put some noise reduction in because there isn't any by default
and then I'm gonna go to the lens correction tab
I'm gonna turn on chromatic aberration because there's plenty of that in the
picture
okay so that's what I need to do in here n roll I'm just gonna click on the
OK button and will leave role behind and come back into Photoshop
now I could stop here quite happily but
I think that pic you just need a little bit more and sometimes when I'm stuck
for ideas are use plugins and that I am any use
the Perfect Photo Suite from on one
now to do that I just need to tidy up my screen a little bit so let's bring this
on likes I
and I also need to get rid of the the fact is a 32-bit file because
by try and use the on one or any other plugin for that matter
there unavailable because at the huge a man today to
to get rid of that 32-bit filing go to a 16-bit
first 20 I need to go to a liar then got a restaurant I is
and liar and then I can choose
image made 16 bits
per channel don't flatten it down don't merger damn
and then I can choose File or tonight and there it is and I'm gonna choose
perfect affects
8 which is just brilliant forgiving you ID is an
inspiration on things you could do with your pitches so
let's have a look at the the presets here and there are a buncha presets I'm
gonna go with the vintage ones which has a
a great range in vintage style presets and you can see straight away all these
fantastic looks at you could give your picture and they will just pop up on the
screen is is
just fantastic I'm gonna go with this one here great name
great effect Dirty Bird Ananya that presets but they're also individual
filters you can
apply so are click on the filters we need to make a new layout put that on
sale here
in perfect effects will make a new layer I know what I'm gonna do is come down
right at the bottom
but they with vignette click on the option to see some previews
I'm gonna do this one big softy like the name
like effect I'm not actually choosing affects by name I should point that out
but one thumb down 0 click on apply and that'll take me
